College of St. Scholastica Community Day
Spring 2013

Our spring Community Day will be dedicated to feeding the hungry in our community and around the world. The Thanksgiving in the Spring meal is being prepared by students in the Dignitas program. All members of the St. Scholastica community have the opportunity to participate in other activities during the day.

Dignitas students and faculty are preparing food, raising money, publicizing the event and delivering the Thanksgiving in the Spring meal to people in need in our community.

All faculty, staff and students are invited to sign up for other activities of the day: packing food for the Feed My Starving Children event, lobbying at the state legislature, and the senior assessment.
The schedule and the opportunities to sign up are listed below.
